0.7.1

@github-actions github-actions released this 12 Jul 15:25

Fixed

  • The menu bar (tray) icon rendered blank due to a corrupted embedded image; it now shows correctly and adapts to light and dark menu bars.
  • App icon is now built from the properly rendered per-size icon set, so it stays crisp at small sizes (Finder lists, Spotlight, Dock at small sizes).

@github-actions github-actions released this 12 Jul 15:06

Added

  • Reminders: set a one-time date/time reminder on any note from the editor toolbar or the sidebar's right-click menu, with quick presets and a custom picker. Fires a native notification even if the note isn't open; clicking it opens the note. Reminders that pass while the app is closed surface as a catch-up notification on the next launch.
  • Notion import: "Import Notion Export…" (Note menu) turns a folder from Notion's own "Export → Markdown & CSV" into notes and folders, preserving the page hierarchy, stripping Notion's id suffixes from titles/filenames, and rewriting internal page and image links to point at their new location. Database exports are copied in as plain .csv files rather than parsed.
  • Menu bar option (Settings → Menu bar, off by default): keeps Noteato running in the menu bar instead of quitting on ⌘Q or the traffic-light close, so reminders can still fire. Quit fully from the menu bar icon's own "Quit Noteato."
  • The sidebar's import button is now a dropdown: "From Markdown…" and "From Notion…". Choosing Notion first shows a how-to guide before the folder picker.

Changed

  • New app icon, and a matching menu-bar icon that now renders as a template image so it adapts to light and dark menu bars.
  • Notion import: links between imported pages now become real, durable note links (Noteato's own mention chips, resolved by id) instead of plain relative-path links, so they keep working even if a note is later renamed or moved. A page that has sub-pages now imports as a note living inside its own children's folder, rather than as an oddly-duplicated same-named sibling.

Fixed

  • Backspace at the very start of a note's first (paragraph) block now moves the cursor into the title, and the down arrow in the title now moves into the body — matching the existing up-arrow/Enter behavior in the other direction.

0.6.0

@github-actions github-actions released this 11 Jul 12:19

Added

  • Note links: type "@" in the editor to insert a Notion-style mention chip that opens the linked note in a tab and keeps working after moves and renames.
  • Agent upgrades: @-mention other notes as read-only chat context, create new notes from chat (with clickable chips for the results), bigger model choices, and a stop button with real request cancellation.
  • Proofread and Summarize enhance actions that stream into an in-place overlay bubble with Copy, Insert below, and Replace; Extract key points now appends below the selection instead of overwriting it.
  • Notion-style vertical block menu on the drag handle: turn into, copy, duplicate, and delete.
  • Tab bar: right-click menu (pin, close others, close to the right, close all), pinned tabs that survive bulk closes, and previous/next tab navigation buttons.
  • Double-click inline renaming for notes and folders in the sidebar, plus a Rename context-menu action.
  • The OS now recognizes the app as a Markdown editor — files opened from Finder are imported and opened automatically.

Changed

  • The agent applies note edits before announcing them, showing an "Updating notes…" state while it works.
  • Sidebar note tiles show only the title, and folder rows are taller.
  • Dictation auto-scrolls to keep the text being written in view.
  • Arrow-up from the first line of a note moves the caret into the title.
  • More breathing room between block text and its side actions; nested list indent guides removed.

Fixed

  • Selecting a divider no longer shows the formatting toolbar or a blue node highlight.
  • Enhance is only offered for text selections, not tables, media, or dividers.

0.5.0

@github-actions github-actions released this 11 Jul 09:02

Added

  • A right-side agent panel with note context, per-note chat history, model selection, new chats, streamed responses, and full-note editing.
  • Nested folders with create, rename, move, drag-and-drop, and folder-aware note creation.
  • Full-text note search, pinned notes, contextual note actions, and undoable note and folder deletion.
  • Accent color presets and a plain Markdown editing mode.

Changed

  • Reworked the app header, tab strip, sidebar, editor spacing, settings controls, and shortcuts placement for a denser desktop layout.
  • Moved the agent toggle into the app header and made the sidebar darker than the editor in every theme.
  • Moved dictation into a compact editor option with a smaller live-state waveform.
  • Renamed AI selection tools to Enhance and streamed improvements directly into the selected blocks with progress and changed-block highlighting.
  • Expanded inexpensive OpenAI and Anthropic model choices for Enhance and the agent.

Fixed

  • Applied the selected accent consistently across AI, dictation, and interactive states.
  • Preserved bare URL links through rich-editor Markdown round trips.
  • Created new notes inside the selected folder from the sidebar, header, empty state, and keyboard shortcut.
  • Added consistent vertical spacing to AI preferences and feature toggles in Settings.

@github-actions github-actions released this 10 Jul 18:56

Added

  • Optional bring-your-own-key AI features for Anthropic and OpenAI.
  • Selection actions for summarizing, improving, and extracting key points from highlighted note content.
  • Ask-note popup for questions about the current note.
  • Optional AI cleanup for live dictation.

Changed

  • Renamed the app from Noat to Noteato.
  • Builds now target Apple Silicon (arm64) only — Intel (x64) builds have been dropped.
  • Updated the macOS app icon from the Noteato app icon set.

0.3.0

@github-actions github-actions released this 10 Jul 14:14

Added

  • Window size and position now persist across restarts — Noat reopens at the size and place you left it, including maximized state.
  • Double-click anywhere on the empty header to maximize/restore the window.
  • Minimum window width lowered to 350px, so the window is resizable down to a much narrower layout.

0.2.0

Choose a tag to compare

@github-actions github-actions released this 10 Jul 09:33

Added

  • Collapsible sidebar (⌘\) and a Zen mode (⌘.) that hides the sidebar and tabs entirely for distraction-free writing — both persist across restarts.
  • Per-note full-width toggle, independent per note.
  • Font setting: System, Serif, Mono, or Rounded.
  • Notes folder picker in Settings — moves existing notes to the new location instead of orphaning them.
  • Import existing markdown files (⌘O) as new notes.
  • Keyboard shortcuts help popup, reachable from anywhere including Zen mode.
  • Dictation now lives in a floating panel with a live horizontal waveform instead of an inline header button.
  • Subtle motion throughout the UI (tab/panel transitions, hover states), respecting prefers-reduced-motion.

Changed

  • Settings moved back from a tab to a modal.
  • Renamed the app from Nota to Noat.
  • Enter in the title field now jumps focus into the note body, matching Notion.
  • The app now opens the most recently edited note on launch instead of showing an empty state when notes already exist.
  • Tables, quotes, and dividers now follow the app's own light/dark palette instead of BlockNote's hardcoded colors.

Fixed

  • Renaming a note's title now correctly renames its underlying file on disk (a prior crash-fix had left filenames stuck at their original value).
  • Wide tables no longer get clipped — they scroll horizontally within their own row, with a visible scrollbar.

  • Sticky notes: always-on-top, borderless, persist across restarts.
  • Chrome-style tabs with a native hidden titlebar and real traffic-light controls.
  • Light/dark theme, matched to the native window chrome.
  • Quick-note shortcuts: ⌘T new note, ⌘⇧N new sticky note, ⌘W close tab, ⌘, settings.
